Well, we had a storm last night and in came more COOLER Weather! I am sick of it!!
Yesterday we were at 82 degrees and today we are at 67!!
When is Mother Nature going to make up her mind??? I don't want cold or cooler weather anymore! I am ready for the 75 degree weather!!! Nice, not hot or cold you can go outside and not die or freeze! lol
So this is the weather in Louisiana, how is it where you are?
Please tell us where you are and how the weather is.

Here in the U.K it has been raining but we also had hailstones today. Its a shame as we had a pleasant spring day yesterday (but not as warm as where you are) and the weather turned so quickly. I once heard someone say england the only place where you can get all four seasons in one day i think that sums it up quite well.

I forgot about the hailstones. There is a saying which I believe was original said by Mark Twain: "If you don't like the weather in England, just wait a minute"

well i am in pennsylvania and by the sounds i would rither be in louisiana. we haven't even hit 67 here yet. there was like one day last week that it got up to like 60 and other then that its cold as could be. on top of that all it has wanted to do is rain and two mornings this week we woke up to the ground covered in snow. i want it to warm up so i can turn my heat off. we just moved and we have a great pouch so i am waiting for it to warm up so i can get up in the morning and sit out on the porch,drink my coffee and enjoy the veiw. i would be happy with at least 70 right now but i likeit when its like 80-85. thats perfect for me.

I totally understand. 67 was a little cool today, I went to the store, but had to put a light jacket on.
I like 75 degrees, 80 and above here is HOT especially if the humidity is high, then you can't breathe.

Now it's the spring and the new leaves have grown and the flowers have bloomed. It's warm but sometimes it's rainy. It's moist and sometimes there will be fog. I hope the summer will come soon as I don't like the rains.

It has been storming here for days. We have alot of flooding going on. Today is very sunny but it is cold also. I think it only got in the low 50's today. I am so ready for the warmer weather also. I would love to be able to get outside. We are in Indiana and the weather should start warming up here soon.

in January it was COLD and I was sick with the flu for the whole month
We get humid also and it makes it hard to enjoy the outside. I just want spring weather that is not humid, so I can go for my walks. I know that by the end of this month, we will have weather that will make you not want to go outside

hi icy'-i live in the Uk we have been having all sorts of weather here,from floods to sunshine warm breezy weather-the past two days we have had all of it in one it was snowing yesterday and it was so picturesque snowmen everywhere, trees and gardens pure white but come the evening all of it had gone,this morning it was sunshining but it wasn't warm it was brisk-then by the afternoon the sun disappeared and ther were clouds and it hail stoned,followed by dry sunny weather then it rained and looked really dull and very cold-at the moment the time is only 5pm here and now the sun is just coming out the day isn't over so who knows what the weather will be later!-so here in the UK our weather is a mixture at the moment-littleowl

Hi icy, well the weather here is more or less the same all year round that's why we moved to the Dom Rep. Generally sunny and around 82 degrees although we do seem to be getting more storms than usual. I'm itting here in a t-shirt and shorts with door open so that I can feel the breeze and see the blue sea in the distance, what a life!
I know what you mean about wishing the cold winter spell away, the UK is feeling Mother Nature's cool vibes too....:(
To cap it all my mother had no central heating over the Easter break and it was snowing outside! Luckily it has been fixed now but she went for a couple weeks with extra clothes on and she will be 80 this year! She is a tough old bird as the expression goes!

WOW! That is never good to have no heating. Glad it is fixed now.
Glad your weather is good all year, I wish we were.

the first of this week was sunny and warm but on thursday it started raining and being in the 40's, we live by the northern california coast. I love cool/cold weather. But I also enjoy the change in seasons. Im more concerned with how the animals and plants are dealing with it. We are still having frost when it isnt raining. Most of the flowers and plants dont seem to notice though lol We have easter lily's, tulips, buttercups, marigolds... Everything seems to be used to it. Im ready for some spring weather for sure :D

Here it's nice and sunny, it definitely has started to feel like summer for the first time. The whole winter has been unseasonably warm, but I can't say I mind that much.

Hello icyorchid, I feel you, Thrusday was a beautiful day, and Friday the bottom fell out. I live in MS. Thunderstorms, tornado warnings rain wind. A lot of damage in Jackson. Trees down power lines down. Saturday morning we had no lights for nearly 5 hours. So as far as the weather I think all of the U.S. agrees with you. popciclecold

In UK, I woke up to snow on the rooftops but then the sun came out and melted it all, it has been quite warm until this afternoon when the temperature dropped. So maybe there could be more snow on the way, hope not though. I hope mother nature makes up her mind pretty soon, I long for some warm days now, I think everyone does now, it seems to have been a long winter.

I live in Europe in the Netherlands. We have cool weather over here, 47 degrees, they are predicting snow for tommorow, that later on turns in to rain. We didn't get any snow the whole winter, but now it's spring where getting snow. It was hard to find eastereggs in the snow LOL.
